A member asked:
Does heart rate say anything about the health of the heart? if heartrate is normal then is the heart working fine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can: If the heart rate is too fast(over 100) it can be concerning. If it is too slow(less than 60) it could be that the person is a conditioned athlete or that there is something wrong with the electrical activity of the heart.
